Read/Write .tdm and .tdms in VB6

[waynecj7]

I am exploring the posibility of using the tdm and tdms data storage formats in an in house created VB6 application.  Are there and activeX controls or other assistance to allow you to read and write tdm and tdms files easily.  I am very new to NI hardware and software so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Wayne

Hello, Wayne!

Here is a link to a previous thread in our Discussion Forum in which you may find more information about this issue.  I hope this helps!

Thanks for the link to the other thread.  I aparently just didn't search deep enough.  In my other searches I found the TDM C DLL.  Would that also be a viable way to write to the TDM format from VB6.

Thanks.

Wayne,

Yep, I think that's probably a viable solution for you.  Here is some information about the TDM C DLL and the options that you have when considering the usage of TDM/TDMS with software products that do not belong to the National Instruments portfolio.  Best of luck constructing your application, Wayne!
